Are you referring to the nissan sat nav?
If so you have viewing options, i never use the bird view.
Yes the satnav will be dated, even the 2009 xtrail, but the position indicator will always point you in the correct direction, even if it shows you in a field, eventually you get back to the highlighted route, just requires common sense, and the large display is always better the the small aftermarket offerings.
I can really recommend the latest version, but still no post codes is a large negative, i use my smart phone nokia for that if required.
